✦ Synopsis
With the use of [ 3 H]gamma-hydroxybutyric acid, binding experiments allowed the screening of new compounds as ligands of gammahydroxybutyric acid receptors. Starting from the acid-alcohol gamma-hydroxybutyric acid structure, structure-activity relation analysis and lead optimization highlighted gamma-hydroxybutyric acid derivatives with significantly increased affinities, when compared with the affinity of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid. Further pharmacological studies with the use of gamma-hydroxybutyric acid derivatives allowed the characterization of the first competitive antagonist acting at gamma-hydroxybutyric acid receptors (NCS 382).
